12 Angry Men is widely regarded as one of the best films of the 1950s. Adapted from a live TV presentation, it was co-produced by and stars Henry Fonda, alongside an outstanding cast that includes Jack Warden, Lee J. Cobb, and E.G. Marshall. This was also the first film directed by Sidney Lumet. The courtroom drama remains as relevant today as it was at its release in 1957. The film will be screened in the Alumni Auditorium, followed by a background discussion led by the instructor.
